Who's taking it home? I'm saying Bush. He's just an amazing player.

I have to go with Reggie Bush too. There is just no comparison between him and Vince Yound. Doesn't he have 8 something yards per carry?

Bush & Young are on another planet than all other players this year. I do think that Bush takes it home.

Both will be top 5 picks this April.

A month ago I would have said Vince Young without hesitation, but after watching Reggie Bush a couple times on TV and the way he played against Fresno and UCLA, the last two games of the year, I think he will win and I don't think it will be close. The only way it is close is if voters sent their ballots in before the USC-Fresno game. Bush is an amazing player and, not that it matters for the Heisman, but he will be a far better pro than Young or Leinart.

Wasn't even close, Bush with 85% of the first place votes, most lopsided-vote ever!!!!!!!!!!! He deserves it. I think Vince taking such a beating in the voting might be the deciding factor in him coming back next year. It wasn't even close!

What I'm still wondering... as they were showing the votes, one of the ESPN talking heads (Fowler, probably) said "He was on 99% of the ballots."

I don't care if you think one of the other two should have won, but anyone in that 1% that didn't even have Bush on the ballot needs to have their vote revoked.

ESPN announced that Bush was going to win heisman a little more than two weeks ago so it wasn't that big of a surprise.

I overheard this idiot at the student union today talking about how Bush is overrated, and he said he based that on watching the Fresno State game. He was talking about how he only won because of his blockers, and that Leinart should have won...He was wearing and Indiana hoodie, so I guess he just doesnt know much about football.

I heard that there were a total of 8 ballots that did not have Bush. I don't know how many players are listed on each ballot, but I agree that anyone that did not have Bush should have their vote taken away. I suspect it was a Vince Young supporter who thought by not giving Bush a vote at all would help Young. I don't think Leinart was the best QB in the country this year, much less the best player. Young and, it makes me ill to say this, Brady Quinn were better.

thank goodness young didn't take it home. I can't stand the run first quarterbacks.

Yeah that Josh Harris was a loser!

I never got the chance to watch harris play except at OSU his last year. He was a great player and I'm not arguing that. I just would much rather see a QB stand in the pocket and deliver a pass rather than try to take off as soon as possible. Its hard to say which is better really outside of personal opinion, look at the two best teams in the nation, usc:great QB not a run first guy, Leinhart stands there and delivers his passes or sells his fakes. Texas: Young can hurt you at anytime by taking off and getting to the marker. If I had to choose a QB for my team though, I'm going with Leinhart cause I need someone who can throw the ball and take the pressure in the pocket.
